Argh, sorry about that! Not too embarrassing to miss that - a single commit at the beginning of pandemic. There is no mention of it elsewhere. I see there is no convenient place to mention it also - there isn't a "contributor's guide". Mentioning it somewhere in docs/ would be appropriate, since it is a hidden file.. how did the recent GSoC people cope? :-).
I'll be sure to try it when I add large enough block to see what it does.
